The HTC Desire EYE seems to have one key point in its favor, at first - selfie power. But it's a whole lot more than that.

And it's not a mid-tier phone either - in fact it has many of the same specifications as the HTC One M8, the company's current major hero phone. This isn't your everyday average after-thought - it's a re-imagining of the HTC One M8's key points put inside an almost shockingly well made "Desire" brand device.

Verizon has detailed the phone, announcing that it will begin offering it starting tomorrow for free alongside a two-year contract.

The processor for the new Amazon Fire Phone has been revealed as Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 800, the same SoC (system on chip) released on the most recent Kindle Fire model tablet.
